BarCampPune3- My Experiences
9:30: I am attending BarCampPune3 and am at Persistent Systems Pvt. Ltd. I got some cool logistics - Tshirt, pen , pad. I am also having breakfast! The weather is lovely!
The Barcamp Schedule
10:23: I am attending the first session by Rakesh Raju on TVGuide.in
Feedback: This session was the first one and packed with people. Rakesh discussed about how he created a TV guide because India didn't have one which could crawl contents across 100+ channels daily!
The next session was on Micro$oft $ilverlight by Aditya Thatte. He talked about M$ answering to JRE and Flash plugins. $ilverlight is still novice and at least I am not going to move to it seeing the amount of code one has to write!
The next session was again by Rakesh Raju on 2D and 3D game development. He was talking more on what games his company had built rather than on the framework. Marketing might be the right word but I don't want to use it as he did show something in the end to develop a scenario out of Torque and TorqueScript! But still everything was pre-made and a person new to game development would never know how to get started.
13:52 After having attended three session, and a wonderful lunch. Right now I am all set to give my first talk of the day: Flash Widget Tutorial. Looking forward to see many questions!
There were a fewer questions than expected.
The next session I attended was of Abhijit: FaceBook and RoR. It was again a complete NO NO for novice on RoR. I am happy that I had worked with Facebook API for PHP before else RoR went above my head!! It was a good session otherwise.
The next session was again mine on Mobile Navigation and boy! I got so many queries. I am happy I got a new idea into people's mind!
I regret to have missed many sessions like:
How to start a company(I am sure Jatinder attended it and will blog on it).
IPR and Cyber Laws
Writing a Firefox addon by Vinod
I also missed Abdul Qabiz and I found that I wasn't the only guy who missed him!

Free Software Song by RMS
Recently I found the lyrics of The Free Software Song by Richard Stallman.
Before the lyrics here a short history of the song: Richard Stallman was attending some get together where everyone had to either sing or perform something. He knew his turn was coming so he quickly scribbled this song. He also thought of the tune that very moment. When he sung the song, people said it sounded like an anthem and one lady said that he should show it to Richard Stallman. He replied that he was Richard Stallman!
Join us now and share the software;
You'll be free, hackers, you'll be free.
Hoarders may get piles of money,
That is true, hackers, that is true.
But they cannot help their neighbors;
That's not good, hackers, that's not good.
When we have enough free software
At our call, hackers, at our call,
We'll throw out those dirty licenses
Ever more, hackers, ever more.
Join us now and share the software;
You'll be free, hackers, you'll be free

VB6 and IE7 problem
One may no longer be able to use the ieframe.dll when using IE7 with VB6's Web Browser Control
Here's a quick tip:
On your component selection dialog box, Point the Microsoft Internet Controls to SHDOCVW.dll instead of ieframe.dll and bingo!

Add external deployable files to Java EE projects on netbeans
Ever wondered how you'd deploy external CSS/JavaScript with servlets or JSPs?
This article will guide you on how to add a CSS/JavaScript (.css, .js) or any file in your project so that it gets inside your .WAR file too!
Here's how to:
1) Start your netbeans: I am using 5.5
2) Goto Tools>Template Manager
3) Select or Expand "Other"
4) Click "Add..." and select the file which you want to include.
5) After selecting the file will appear in your "Others" list
6) In your project navigator, add a new file of this type.
7) Give a name to this file and feel excited!
